Refer to the picture of the nutcrackers. the small nut is placed close to the pivot of the nutcracker and the larger nut is placed farther from the pivot. comparing the nutcracker cracking the larger nut to the smaller nut, describe the difference in your hand's force and the distance from the nut between the two.

a. more force required, less distance moved

b. less force, less distance

c. more force, more distance

d. less force, more distance

D.
Due to the greater distance from the pivot, less force is required to crack the nut as
Moment = Force x distance.

Neptune is the eighth planet from the sun. it was the first planet to get its existence predicted by  mathematical calculations  before it was actually seen through a telescope on sept. 23, 1846. irregularities in the orbit of  uranus  led french astronomer alexis bouvard to suggest that the gravitational pull from another celestial body might be responsible. german astronomer johann galle then relied on subsequent calculations to   spot neptune via telescope. previously, astronomer galileo galilei sketched the planet, but he mistook it for a star due to its slow motion. in accordance with all the other planets seen in the sky, this new world was given a name from greek and roman mythology — neptune, the roman god of the sea.
